    Hi everyone,
    I finished my twin busts on Kelly and Oddball from the movie "Kelly's Heroes".
    They're sculpted by Jacek Spychalski and are produced by Mirage out of Poland.
    As always, any comments and especially constructive criticism is welcome and appreciated.
    Thanks for looking,
    Craig :)

    Hi guys,
    Thanks for looking and for the kind words.
    You know, when I started these, I just wanted to paint them for my own pleasure. They went real smooth for the most part and I had a lot of fun doing them. The only thing I really not happy with is the job I did on the armor unit patch on Oddball's left sleeve. I think I'm going to strip the paint from it and re do it. But no big rush on that.
    Hi Brad. Good to hear from you. It was a pleasure getting to meet you at MFCA. And thanks for your help on the group photo :)
    Yes, they were at the show this weekend. But just barely. I'd bet the paint on a couple of spots were still wet to the touch :)
    Marc, thanks for the suggestion. I'm not a very good photographer and I tend to wash the pieces out with my lighting. That may account for the lack of more color around the eyes. But I'll keep your idea in mind for future pieces.
    Thanks again everyone,
    Craig
